Hmm, that wiki article doesn't mention w00t as being an obfuscation of 'root', signifying that you've owned someone's computer, and thus the obvious extension to 'owning' them while playing a game. That's where I thought it was from.

Back on topic - you lot spend far too long in supermarkets, or eat too much marmite - round here the jar lasts years. and all three of us eat the stuff. I have to hunt it down for hours when we run out cos I've forgotten where it is.

Here's an idea - I'd like to see Sainsburys or someone allow you to put your shopping list and local store into a website and it'll tell you the shortest route round the supermarket (I got this idea after spending 50 minutes in Tesco last Friday looking for humous). Don't think they will though - they probably like people getting lost on the way to fresh fruit and impulse-buying a widescreen TV, or something.
